Chapter 213 Anxious Spaniard

During the game, there was an infighting among the players on the field. How could Calagones, who has always been very strict with the army, accept it. The score was equalized, which made the old man depressed enough. In the end, he saw such a scene.

Nothing to discuss, must be punished!

Of course, Casillas must never be replaced. Although Reina and Palop on the bench are also very good goalkeepers, this sensitive position must not be moved unless it is absolutely necessary.

Moreover, Casillas is the captain of Spain. If he is moved, it will cause a great blow to the morale of the whole team. Calagones cannot take this risk.

Then the only choice is to kill the chicken Ramos to warn the monkey Casillas. Anyway, after the game is over, he will disarm and return to the field, and he is not afraid of offending others.

Replacing Ramos, it is of course impossible to replace Raul, the old golden boy who is basking in the sun in the Maldives, but Valencia's full-back Raul Albiol.

Seeing Calagones' substitution decision, Ramos suddenly became furious. He has a bad temper. Whether in Sevilla or Real Madrid, this young man never knows what restraint is. mean.

At this time, the referee has come to urge, this game is already chaotic enough, who knows that the Spanish team will play a big show, how can the referee bear it, look at the referee's hand in his pocket, if you don't get out If the team loses, he will be a sinner through the ages. No matter how dissatisfied Ramos has in his heart, he can only endure it.

When changing players, Ramos didn't even look at Albiol, and he completely ignored Albiol's outstretched hand, and even Calagones became empty in his eyes.

"Sergio Ramos! If you don't know how to restrain your temper, then you will never be able to become a real superstar in your life!" Although Calagones wanted to make an example of others, he still held Ramos very seriously. Yes, even though he will leave the position of head coach of the national team after this game, the old man still hopes to teach Ramos a lesson at the last moment.

But Ramos, who was so angry, couldn't listen at all, and snorted coldly: "I only know that if you lose this game, you will bear all the responsibility, not me!"

Calagones was immediately angry and wanted to teach Ramos another lesson, but Ramos walked directly into the player tunnel without looking back.

After the Belgian celebrations, the game continued.

After Ben equalized the score, the Spaniard seemed a little impatient. He always thought highly of himself. Spain, who thought he was playing the most advanced football, was evened by his opponent when he had an overall advantage. What is this?

attack!

The Spanish team launched a fierce attack around the Belgian half. They could not accept this result and they had to win this game.

The Spaniards are attacking, the Belgians are defending!

It seems that the game is about to reach a stalemate again, but it is not difficult for careful people to find a detail. Degan did not return to the defense, and his position is very far from the midfield. It can be said that he is completely out of touch. What is the situation? ? !

You must know that although Digan is a forward, when he was in Brazil and when he first arrived in Milan, his position was a central defender. Although his defensive ability is not as good as those top defensive players, he is still very good. If Digan Returning to the defense will increase the thickness of the Belgian midfielder's defense, but Digan is not defending at this moment.

If Degan doesn't defend, Puyol and Marchena can't press up. Degan's ability is obvious, and he can't handle it alone. Only two people can double-team him to limit his performance.

In this way, on the field, the gap between the numbers of the two sides seemed to be smoothed out.

Calagones scolded in his heart. Degan was on the front line, and the Spanish defense did not dare to press too much. Not only the two central defenders, but also the two wide players Capdevila And Albiol also have reservations.

The direct consequence of this is that the distance between the Spanish team's middle and backcourts has widened. Once the ball is lost, there is no way to form a counter-attack on the spot. As a result, the tempo of Spain's offense slowed down.

If kk can't bring the rhythm of the game up, it can't play a threat at all, so don't look at the field, the Spanish team basically controls the ball, but there is no way to pose a threat to Belgium's goal.

On the contrary, every time Belgium counterattacked, the big foot passed the ball forward, and the Spaniard was immediately sweated. What they had to face was Digan!

The veritable number one star in the world!

With Digan on the back line, the Spanish team had to worry if they wanted to attack with all their strength. This is the most uncomfortable thing.

Of course, even without the assists of the two full-backs, the Spanish team's offensive ability is definitely the best in the world, but they have met their nemesis today.

The Spanish team's tactic is to control the ball. If they are head-to-head with them in controlling the ball, if they want to grab the ball from their feet, they will be short and long, and they will be bored. However, if you accept the fact that the Spanish team has the ball calmly, do not compete with the Spanish team in possession of the ball, and do not try to grab the ball at their feet, the Spaniard will feel at a loss.

Most of the teams that are played around by the Spanish team are the teams that start to press from the midfield. Unfortunately, there is enough space in the midfield for the Spaniard to show his passing skills. However, if the defense is shrunk, the defense is deployed at the front of the penalty area, and the defense is intensive in the penalty area, the Spaniard will feel very uncomfortable.

The characteristic of defense in a limited area is that there is no need to take the initiative to press down, as long as everyone guards their positions. Therefore, the Spaniard will be confused, how to pass when no one is pressing? Should it be passed on? Is there any pleasure to pass it on?

On the other hand, under the dense defense, even if the Spaniard has beautiful footwork, there is not enough space for them to play. From the beginning of the European Cup to the present, the Spaniard's penetrating pass in the opponent's penalty area is also rare, which has proved that they have little way to deal with intensive defense.

If so, the Spaniards are likely to lose their rhythm. They will feel that the game is very boring, and there will be no sense of accomplishment in every pass, and they will slack off.

If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools!

The knives in Spain's own hands were rolled by the hard stone of Belgium, and even if they continued to chop in their hands, it would not have much effect.

Belgium has now made it clear that if I don't fight with you, I just want to grind you to death and let you stretch your head and hit me on this rock. You have to see if you smashed my rock, or I'm going to break your head.

Substitution?

Calagones does not have this idea for the time being. The players on the bench may not be able to change the current situation on the field, and once they are replaced, if there is no way to immediately enter the game state, Belgium will seize the opportunity and fight back. At that time, It is themselves who suffer.

The most troublesome thing for Calagones is the striker problem. Although Torres worked hard, facing Kompany, a powerful defensive player, Torres had no advantage at all.

Except for the performance in the first half, Torres' contribution to Spain is basically negligible. The only role to open is to contain and win shots for the attacking group in the midfield.

But now the midfielder is also unable to open the situation. When Torres needs to stand up, he can't help Spain.

Torres is also depressed. According to his script, he should become a national hero, but the development of the script has deviated from the track from the very beginning. With Kompany in front of him, he is a powerful defensive player. There is no way, not to mention that even if he can break through Kompany's defense, he still has to face Gur, who has returned to the defense, and Vermaelen is watching him.

At this time, the impact of Villa's injury was fully revealed. Villa is the most suitable striker for Spain's tactical style. Spain's tactics in the previous few games were also completely centered on Villa.

Originally, after Villa was injured, Calagones had two options, one of which was to send Guisa, and the other was to strengthen the midfield. In the end, Calagones chose the latter.

In fact, this is not wrong. After all, strengthening the thickness of the midfield, through sharp ground attack and super fast counterattack speed, can play the Spanish tactical style, but when it meets Belgium, Spain is like a scholar meeting a soldier. It is reasonable to say I don't know.

Belgium didn't compete with Spain in the midfield at all, but set up an iron barrel formation in front of the penalty area, waiting for the Spanish team to hit upwards. This is like a martial arts master with peerless martial arts. Palm, nine yin and nine yang, androgyny can play well, but in the end the opponent is a golden bell cover, which not only can't break the defense, but also hurts the hand when clapping, why bother.

In the 68th minute of the game, Torres got the ball again. This time his chance came, and Kompany went up to grab it. As a result, the two collided with each other, and the football suddenly flew up. Torres saw it, Immediately elated, he squeezed Kompany away and chased after the football, only to bump into Gul head-on.

Torres wanted to win again with strength, but Gur was not afraid at all. Both of them fell to the ground. Torres stood up as if the referee was reaching out to signal Gur to foul, but Gur did not get up for a long time.

Digan saw that his head was getting bigger. If Gour was injured again, Belgium would have used up all three substitutions at this time. Wouldn't it be impossible to fight with nine players?

The referee ignored Torres, ran to Gul, and immediately signaled the Belgian team doctor to enter the field. After examination, it was found that Gul's shoulder was dislocated by the impact just now.

"How? Can you still hold on?" Digan asked with a frown. He also wanted Gul to rest, but now Gul's strength is needed on the court.

Gul looked serious and nodded vigorously: "No problem!"

Then he took off his jersey and the team doctor went to the sidelines, and asked the team doctor to fix his dislocated shoulder with a bandage.

After playing again, Guer became a one-armed man, but this desperate spirit also won a burst of applause from the fans in the stands.

At this time, Belgium no longer appeared as a villain.

Before the start of the game, people regarded Spain as the favorite for the championship, and Belgium was a spoiler at best. After the start of the game, Belgium's defensive tactics made the fans even more dissatisfied.

It can be said that no one likes such a Belgian team except the Belgians!

However, what the Belgian team showed in this game has moved many people. In an extremely unfavorable situation, not giving up lightly has made many people stand on Belgium's side.

God rewards hard work!

When the game progressed to 73 minutes, Belgium's backcourt once again stole the ball. This time it was Torres who conceded the ball. After he got the ball, he wanted to single out Kompany, but was rushed by Vermaelen who was assisting in the defense. Come up, break the ball with one kick, and then Kompany stepped forward with a long pass and kicked the ball down the Spanish half.

Fight back!

When you seize the opportunity, never let it go!

After the equalizer, Belgium, who had been huddled in the half and refused to come out, suddenly showed their minions. Degan grabbed the ball for the top and then split the side immediately. Simmons told him to step in and take advantage of the trend after receiving the ball , Directly use speed to force Capdevila.

Capdevila's footing was unstable, and he couldn't find a chance to foul, so he could only chase back with all his strength. Martens on the other side was also plugging in at high speed, and there were Digan and Fellaini in the middle. , and Gul was behind to assist.

For a while, the Spanish team was in chaos, and the situation on the field changed.

Marchena has pulled to the side at this time, ready to intercept Simmons, Simmons is not reckless when he sees this, and in the process of telling the ball to rush forward, he suddenly crosses the ball and hands the ball to Degan. After Gan received the ball, he immediately sent a pass to the other wing, and Martens rushed over. After receiving the ball, he made a slight adjustment and made a cross.

It's a pity that his pass was a bit too deep. Although Degan ran vigorously, he still couldn't reach the ball and was punched out of the penalty area by Casillas.

Degan got the ball before Senna, saw that there was no chance to shoot, and then passed the ball to Simmons on the other side. At this time, both Gour and Fellaini rushed into the penalty area of Spain .

Simmons made a cross, and Fellaini and Marchena competed for the top. Although they hit the ball, they failed to exert power. Albiol kicked the ball out of the penalty area again.

Gul wanted to catch the ball, but suddenly heard a shout behind him!

"Get out of the way!"

Gul subconsciously dodged, turned around and saw Digan rushing towards the ball with a ferocious face, while Puyol had already rushed out of the penalty area and made a gesture of swinging his legs to clear the siege.
